The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X70-10B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø40mm bore and 70mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ40X70-10B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external extend stop. A threaded adjuster with lock nut lets you set the extend end position on the machine, yielding a usable forward range of 60-70mm from the 70mm full stroke. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals a standard ACQ, delivering 628.3N push and 527.8N pull at 0.5MPa. This variant includes a male M14x1.5 rod end and NBR elastomer bumpers. It ships without a magnet, though the body retains sensor grooves for adding switches later.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACQJ datasheet. The adjustable stop shortens the EXTEND stroke only; the piston area — and therefore the force — is the same as a standard ACQ of this bore. Adjustable window options: 10/20/30/40/50/75/100 mm.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore — the adjuster changes stroke length, not piston area. Actual usable force is lower due to friction; size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact clamping reach on a CNC fixture by turning the external stop, accommodating different raw casting widths without swapping cylinders.
Adjust the extend position rapidly during product format changes on a cartoning line, using the 60-70mm range to set new sealing depths.
Establish trial end positions for pressing bearings on an automated line, fine-tuning the 10mm window to prevent over-travel on delicate parts.
Select this 40mm bore if your setup needs 628.3N push at 0.5MPa but requires tweaking the forward stop within a 10mm window. Stepping down to a 32mm bore drops push to 402.1N, while a 50mm bore raises it to 981.8N. If exact end-position tuning is unnecessary, a fixed-stroke ACQ works fine. When ordering, verify the 70mm full stroke, 10mm adjust window, male M14x1.5 rod thread, and confirm no magnet is needed.
Quick checklist
It provides 628.3N push and 527.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 879.6N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 128kgf at 1.0MPa. The usable extend range is 60-70mm, created by a 10mm adjustment window on the 70mm full stroke.
An M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut mechanically limits the forward stroke, so force is identical to a standard ACQ. Fixed NBR bumpers decelerate the rod near ends, but the cylinder will drift on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
